Does this software do anything else
-
I have received my reports for my site and reduced the pages that had faults and remove links that didn`t go anywhere.
So now what is next do I get a report for each of the pages on my site or anything else.
Can i improve my site or traffic to my site?

Adam just gave you two great resources.
Also as a disclaimer in no way does the use of SEOMoz's tools make your site rank better in search engines. These tools were created to give you reports to tell you if you site is ranking and the reasons why you are there. Then the blog, webinars, WBF, etc are created to give you strategies and tactics to increase your rankings.

How to deal with URLs when changing shopping cart software to ensure SEO
NSFW ALERT (LINK BELOW) We are changing the shopping section of our website. Currently the products sit on our own website and when a user goes to checkout they are taken to Mals (a shopping cart site). This means our URL’s look like this. NSFWhttps://www.aprilnites.com.au/mascara_vibe.htmlThe new software is Ecwid and we are using this with a site created in RapidWeaver so the URLs will not be clean and will have all ? And # parameters. I’m wondering if this will hurt the SEO of our whole site or just the product pages. I’m also unsure of how best to deal with the current URLs. Should I use a 301 redirect on all of them to take the user back to the home page of the shop. For us the shop is more of a catalogue. Our main website is the most important part but I want to make sure we are following best practice when making this change. Hope someone can help.Many thanks

Does the order of results from "site:www.example.com" tell us anything?
Does google rank in order of page authority with "site:www.example.com" or is it random? As most of the results of the first 6 pages for our site are internal search results pages ( eg www.example.com/search/product-results)

The fact that search results are index at all is frustrating, they are not linked to internally or externally. The open site explorer does not have any back links for any of the search pages, and I checked the submitted site map and no search urls are submitted, so I don't know how google are finding the search urls. Also tested some of the search urls with aherf and no back links. But since its ranking the search pages ahead of the category(landing) pages with "site:" has me worried that not only are they indexing the urls, but they giving them higher page authority0 -
Has anyone else gotten strange WMT errors recently?
Yesterday, one of my sites got this message from WMT: "Over the last 24 hours, Googlebot encountered 1 errors while attempting to retrieve DNS information for your site. The overall error rate for DNS queries for your site is 100.0%." I did a fetch as Googlebot and everything seems fine. Also, the site is not seeing a decrease in traffic. This morning, a client for which I am doing some unnatural links work emailed me about a site of his that got this message: "Over the last 24 hours, Googlebot encountered 1130 errors while attempting to access your robots.txt. To ensure that we didn't crawl any pages listed in that file, we postponed our crawl. Your site's overall robots.txt error rate is 100.0%." His robots.txt looks fine to me. Is anyone else getting messages like this? Could it be a WMT bug?

Anyone else seeing increased duplication of domains since Penguin?
Hi Is it just me or are the Google SERPs showing more duplication of domains since the penguin update. As an example if I search for "business Christmas cards" on google.co.uk then results 2, 3 and 17 are from the same domain. Similarly results 4, 20, 21 and 22 are the same domain. All results are "reasonable" in that they are designed to catch traffic for variations on this term BUT I'm sure google used to filter this duplication per-penguin. Am I imagining this increased duplication of domains? Gary

Do user metrics really mean anything?
This is a serious question, I'd also like some advice on my experience so far with the Panda. One of my websites, http://goo.gl/tFBA4 was hit on January 19th, it wasn't a massive hit, but took us from 25,000 to 21,000 uniques per day. It survived Panda completely prior. The only thing that had changed, was an upgrade in the CMS, which caused a lot of duplicate content, i.e 56 copies of the homepage, under various URLs. These were all indexed in Google. I've heard varying views, as to whether this could trigger Panda, I believe so, but i'd appreciate your thoughts on it. There was also the above the fold update on the 19th, but we have 1 ad MAX on each page, most pages have none. I hate even having to have 1 ad. I think we can safely assume it was Panda that did the damage. Jan 18th was the first Panda refresh, since we upgraded our CMS in mid-late December. As it was nothing more than a refresh, I feel it's safe to assume, that the website was hit, due to something that had changed on the website, between the Jan 18th refresh and the one previous. So, aside from fixing the bugs in the CMS, I felt now was a good time to put a massive focus on user metrics, I worked hard and continuing to spend a lot of time, improving them. Reduced bounce rate from 50% to 30% (extremely low in the niche) Average page views from 7 to 12 Average time on site from 5 to almost 8 minutes Plus created a mobile optimised version of the site Page loading speeds slashed. Not only did the above improvements have no positive effect, traffic continued to slide and we're now close to a massive 40% loss. Btw I realise neither mobile site nor page loading speeds are user metrics. I fully appreciate that my website is image heavy and thin on text, but that is an industry wide 'issue'. It's not an issue to my users, so it shouldn't be an issue to Google. Unlike our competitors, we actively encourage our users to add descriptions to their content and provide guidelines, to assit them in doing so. We have a strong relationship with our artists, as we listen to their needs and develop the website accordingly. Most of the results in the SERPs, contain content taken from my website, without my permission or permission of the artist. Rarely do they give any credit. If user metrics are so important, why on earth has my traffic continued to slide? Do you have any advice for me, on how I can further improve my chances of recovering from this? Fortunately, despite my artists download numbers being slashed in half, they've stuck by me and the website, which speaks volumes.

Best practise for updating software guide
Heya! I write a guide for a specific piece of Internet-based software which is about to undergo a major patch release. No-one's going to be using the old version, so my old-version articles are essentially going to be useless, as are keywords related to the old version number. Given that, I'm intending to update all my guides to be current with the new version. However, obviously I want to keep the Google juice for the old guides, as they rank pretty well. The three options I'm considering: Simply retitle the old guides to the latest version number - "How to use Blue Widget 2.0" becomes "How to use Blue Widget 3.0". Disadvantage - my URLs still include the old version number, 2.0. Write updated guides as seperate articles and 301 redirect the old articles to them. I've done this before with some success. So, I'd 301 the URL for "How to use Blue Widget 2.0" to the url for "How to use Blue Widget 3.0", my new article. Disadvantages - possible loss of link juice? Also, I believe redirects can be kinda tricksy. Just leave both the old and new versions up there, with a link from the old version saying "outdated, check the new version". My belief is that this would be the worst idea. Should I do one of them, or something else? And why?
